Kendall Center J-Term Reading Group "Beyond The University"

Please join the Kendall Center and your colleagues for a January Reading Group of Michael Roth's recent book, "Beyond the University: Why Liberal Education Matters" (Yale University Press, 2014), a look at different strands of liberal education in the U.S. over the years as well as the higher education landscape today. The book will serve as food for thought for discussion of what our own visions of a liberal arts education are and what we would like our students to gain from their four years here. Sign up with Cathy Blaukat (cblaukat@gustavus.edu) to get your free copy of the book and join the conversation! Snacks will be provided. Facilitator: Eric Dugdale (Dean of General Education and Hanson-Peterson Professor of Liberal Studies).
